National Cemetery Burial

Veterans can save $10,000 on burial expenses when choosing a local National Cemetery.

When an eligible veteran chooses burial in a local non-Veterans Administration National Cemetery, burial expenses can exceed $10,000. Your veteran’s burial / cremation benefits provide for free burial for the veteran, spouse and any dependent children. We will assist you in making burial arrangements with any National Cemetery.
